Editing Maug

''"Hi, I'm Maug! Half-robot, half-also-robot. I'm my own best friend."

Everyone knows about the [[warforged]] from 3.5e [[Dungeons and Dragons]], and how their main draw is that they let you play as a [[awesome|goddamn robot]] in a steampunk fantasy setting. The catch is, they're only half-robot, unless you take the Juggernaut prestige class. Would you be surprised to learn that Third Edition not only offered a way to play as something that was 100% robot, but did so ''before'' the Warforged?

We're talking about the ''Maug'', who appeared in the 3.0e Fiend Folio, featuring darkvision, +7 natural armor, immunity to mind-affecting shenanigans, automatic self-repair capability, '''+10 strength''', a double-ended sword like Darth Motherfucking Maul, and a bunch of other shit that Warforged players wished they had. Also, just like warforged, their favored class was Fighter because they were created by some other race to fight in that race's wars. Unfortunately, they ended up getting overlooked because they didn't get [[Eberron|literally an entire campaign setting that existed for no other purpose than to promote them]].

They're technically an NPC race, but with a level adjustment, meaning that using them as a playable race will require a teeny bit of math and houseruling. However, they speak Common, walk on land, and have arms for holding weapons, so they're still infinitely more playable than the goddamn [[ixitxachitl]].
